Up to the minute launch updates :

2042 GMT (3:42 p.m. EST)

The decision has been made to extend this built-in hold an additional
16 minutes, leading toward a new liftoff time of 4:10 p.m. EST. This
is being done to await improved weather. Also, the new time is after
the collision avoidance period, or COLA, for the International Space
Station during today's 30-minute window.

2040 GMT (3:40 p.m. EST)

T-minus 4 minutes and holding. The countdown is now holding for 10
minutes. At this time the launch crew is not reporting any problems
with the Delta 2 vehicle, Globalstar spacecraft or ground systems.
However, weather is red due to thick clouds and rain.

2039 GMT (3:39 p.m. EST)

T-minus 5 minutes and counting. Standing by to go into the T-minus
4 minute hold. That will be a 10-minute hold in the countdown, but
the hold will be extended if weather conditions do not become
acceptable.
